I'm not a fan of the new pretty UI (slower/sluggish) and people are still coming to grips with it so it's going to be hard to tell you how to fix something so new.
It's still a bit rough. I've resigned to pinning the 5 games/apps I actually use and just go straight there. At least the store has finally been arranged (alphabetically). It's so weird that there aren't better ways to find what you want. The inclusion of the Bing bar just feels like insult to injury.
I've done some checking and I still can't find any way to mute system sounds, which is unfortunate.
Microsoft talk the talk, but this takes the piss. Mmm, they have been doing that since Vista. Don't like it at all and struggling to see why that bloke on the Xbox channel was pushing so much. Another MS product not actually ready for launch, Yep.
@gatsbythepig: Not sure if anyone has found a way to shut off the system sounds yet, I sure haven't. It's awful they haven't addressed this issue. It must be unbelievably easy for them to patch too.

Thinking about it, the only one I can really hear is the really annoying beepy one you get on adds. Well it sounds like it to me when I left thumbstick to sign in. What ones bug you out of curiosity?
@transk53: There is a noise for every movement. Move a square, woosh. Press 'a' boing. Press 'b' swash. That's just the regular menu. Going through the apps is even worse, with louder more frequent unnecessary swashes, boings and shooshes.
As a habit I mute the TV before I do ANYTHING with the xbox menu system.
